Product Description

First Class Legroom:

The Sleepypod Air is a versatile, all-in-one travel solution for pets on the go. It’s the largest carrier approved for in-cabin air travel, doubles as a crash-tested car seat, and transforms into a comfortable pet bed wherever your journey takes you. Travel is effortless with multiple carrying options: slide it over your wheeled suitcase handle or use the padded shoulder strap for hands-free convenience.
Designed with anxious travelers in mind, the privacy panel helps create a calm, secure environment, while the machine-washable bedding makes clean-up quick and easy for you.
The latest Air design includes a fourth ventilation window, enhancing airflow and visibility while ensuring full compliance with international airline requirements.

And just like its award-winning predecessor, the innovative design provides the largest amount of space for in-cabin air travel, contracting in size to fit uniquely underneath a range of airline seats. When on the road, in the event of a collision or sudden stop, its PPRS technology prevents a pet from being ejected, while also helping to reduce the damaging forces on the pet. Rigorous testing includes dynamic crash-testing that reflects the standards for child safety restraints. Watch the crash tests:

• U.S child safety seat standard FMVSS 213

• U.S child safety seat standard FMVSS 213b

About This Carrier

Sleepypod Air has been independently crash-tested and certified with a top safety rating for pets weighing up to 18 pounds by the Center for Pet Safety. Pets differ in size and shape, just like humans. Check Sleepypod’s sizing guide for more information. 

A multifunctional design means fewer things to carry during travels, with the benefit of reducing stress for you and your pet. Ultra Plush bedding ensures a cozy, familiar space during travels. Use Sleepypod Air as a napping space before transitioning to a carrier, car seat, or pet bed away from home. Your pet will travel with less fear and anxiety because it will be traveling in a familiar space. 

Eligible for replacement through Sleepypod’s Crash Replacement Program.

Washing instructions:

• Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth.

• Vacuum pet fur from Ultra Plush bedding.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it suitable for airline travel?

Yes, Sleepypod Air is suitable for in-cabin use on most airlines. Since each airline and airplane is a little different, Sleepypod always recommends contacting the airline prior to travel, just to make sure all pet restrictions and requirements are met.

How do I reduce the size?

Sides fold up on either end while the top presses down. Please note that Sleepypod Air does not hold the reduced shape in a freestanding position. It is designed to release from the reduced size unless restricted by the space available so your pet can enjoy as much space as possible.

Can Sleepypod Air be used in the front seat?

Sleepypod recommends buckling your pet into the rear seat, just like you would a child under 95 pounds, to better ensure safety.

Can more than one pet use the carrier at a time?

Pets can share the carrier at home.
